JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 9. Ray optics and optical instruments

A ray of ligh is incident at an angle of incidence \(60^{\circ}\) on the glass slab of refractive index \(\sqrt{3}\). After refraction, the light ray emerges out from other parallel faces and lateral shift between incident ray and emergent ray is \(4 \sqrt{3} \,cm\). The thickness of the glass slab is. . .  .. . \(cm\).

  1. A \(82\)
  2. B \(120\)
  3. C \(12\)
  4. D \(16\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\ell= t \sin i \left[1-\frac{\operatorname{cosi}}{\sqrt{\mu^{2}-\sin ^{2} i}}\right]\) \(\Rightarrow 4 \sqrt{3}= t \sin 60^{\circ}\left[1-\frac{\cos 60^{\circ}}{\sqrt{3-\frac{3}{4}}}\right]\)
